Hot on the Highstreet Week 79

Elle Magazine includes "Elle Edits" pages in every monthly issue. I love these features - they are stylishly compiled collages of new products, clothes, jewellery, and accessories. They are selected around a certain theme, for example "velvet" or "jewels," usually the idea matches a current trend. On one of these colourful Elle pages, I noticed a few pieces from Jade Jagger's jewellery range - bold bright gems encased in gold with a gothic skull motif. I was instantly attracted to the collection but assumed it would be horrifically expensive.

Checking her website, I was pleasantly surprised to find the prices were lower than I expected, almost reasonable considering the special precious materials used. The accessories are split into four main collections: skulduggery, precious, gypsy, and kiss. Jade Jagger’s jewellery is boho chic: gorgeous chunky chains, pretty delicate bracelets and enticing bejewelled rings. Prices range from £55 upwards, and there are some lovely pieces that would be perfect for Christmas presents.

My favourites are the skulduggery items, Indian inspired pieces decorated with enamel beads, tassels and cute gold trinkets. Usually the celebrity designers have little to offer, but Jade Jagger has definitely proved herself with this unique jewellery brand.

Visit the Jade Jagger shop at 43 All Saints Road, London W11 1HE, or visit the website here.
